There are some cultural differences between Chinese and western inorder to avoid unnecessary misunderstanding caused and trouble.
First, Chinese concept of privacy isrelatively weak. People count on their in-group to look after each other. Sothe Chinese are often very willing to understand other people's ups and downs, andthe others are willing to share. But to the westerners, violation of personalprivacy does not allow, For example, we tend to ask one's age, marital status,children, occupation, or income when first met each other, which is a polite inChinese, but in the West it will be considered as a violation of their privacy.
Second, westerners deeply believe that time ismoney, so they are much cherished time in life, and they often do a carefulplanning at a fixed time, they have a good habit of Keep the appointment on time.But Chinese people are not very focused on time. Westerners have often feltuncomfortable about it.
Third, Chinese people are willing to be modestmostly. When communication with others, we often praises others and belittle ourselves,we think that modesty is a virtue. For example, when we were praised, we often say"No, I am not. I just did what I should do.” But in the same case the Westwill always say” Think you” to accept. So we always think that westerners aretoo-confident and pride, and when hear the Chinese people that deny otherstheir own praise, westerns would be very surprised and think that the Chinese peopleare dishonest.
Finally, the Chinese nation's fine traditionof hospitality is known. In social situations, Chinese people often toast eachother and offering each other cigarettes, even if filled with delicious food,the owner has always used to say a few words such as” bear with me”. Sometimesthe owner will use chopsticks to take their food the guest's bowl, using a varietyof ways to persuade the guests more than a bite, drink more. But in Westerncountries, people have respect for individual rights and personal privacy. So theywill not use various means to persuade guests to drink, you will not need todrunk so far.

There is apparent difference between Eastern and western culture, which makes us logically differ from foreigners. Some expressed feelings just can’t be translated from one language to another, how can we understand them, then? Learn the language, study their culture backgrounds and find out the original source about the expression, then, we can get more colorful meaning, richer information than simple translations.

Well, that is the interest or say, motivation why I am eager to practice English.

But the discourage thing is that I have found that it seems my fingers and ears and eyes are more sensitive about English than my mouth, I can type the letters, I can listen and distinguish two words, and I can read articles, but I am clumsy in blurting it out!

So, another objective is, use it crazily to waken the ability of speaking. If you agree with me, so let’s go!本回答被网友采纳
